In short: Enjoued the rural views of this course. Some rolling hills but nothing too difficult
In full: The course was very scenic. Rural views across most of it, so a lot different to my other road races that are inner city races. Organisation at the start seemed off, but mistakes do happen from time to time. Overall a nice race in prep for a marathon.

In short: T Shirts
In full: I thought it was an excellent course and great pb potential BUT my only gripe is the XXL T Shirts that are left for the back runners...How many runners do you see that are XXL...NONE...so why do they order them..... Mine is only fit for using as a cover up on the beach it's that BIG...so please please organisers, lets have more small. medium and large and forget the XL and XXL..Thank You.

In short: Great course, scienic, value.
In full: 2nd time raced, and second PB:)
Great local race, course changed this year, which meant no laps of the grass rugby field.
The change of course wasnt announced too well, as the PA system seemed to be on mute, majority of starters where lining up to run the wrong way.
Also lack of goody bag, but qualtiy t shirt compared to last year, well done.

In short: Fast course for a new PB
In full: We were late getting there so missed the whole toilet fiasco which sounded slightly irritating for most other runners. The marshals were encouraging and there were enough water stations. Making us run past a Hose 2 miles sign when we had 6 more to run was a bit mean but overall a splendid race made even better by the weather. Thank you.

In short: Great Course, pitty about start
In full: Great course, one that i'll do again altho the start was confusing as 600+ runners had to stop in mid stride so as to get through a small gap BUT that said the actual route was great and most of the vehicles that came across the race showed patience and respect to the runners, the sun was out through out and was very warm but there where plenty of water stations, i'll not harp on about the toilets NUFF said cos in general the whole event was very enjoyable and if everything was perfect it wouldnt be better next year, so well done organisers
